Well hello everyone! So we have about 60 days until the application period opens but I thought I would go ahead and get a thread going so that we can share excitement, questions, and concerns and encourage each other through this process! I went back and forth about whether to apply to the LVN program and then bridge simply because I became inpatient with the process because I had been an on again off again student up until this year when a much needed job change allowed me the full focus I needed for my classes. I am currently finishing A&P2, Psych 2314 and will be taking Micro during the Spring term while we wait for acceptance packets or denial letters...I am hoping to get good TEAS scores as I will be sitting at like 27 points before the TEAS. I don't know how people get 35-40 points before TEAS even as long as I have been in school I will have completed all of my ADN courses and half of the BSN courses and still won't have that many points and only one of my classes had a C the rest are all A's and B's. But anyway the TEAS is going to be my riding hope for more points so I will be attending the workshop, using the online skills tutor and I also downloaded an app to help as well. Ya'll jump in and say hi and lets take this challenge on together.

HI! I plan to apply to the Wise County campus IF my TEAS test goes well. At the end of this semester I should have 21 or 22 points before the TEAS. The only co-requisite I'm lacking is Micro (which I plan to take in the Spring). I won't receive residency points because I'm Denton County :( and I don't have enough of the BSN track classes to receive points. Ugh. So like I said, IF and that's a big IF, my TEAS test goes well I'll be applying.

Is anyone planning to apply to the Wise County campus? I was just curious how many students were selected.

Also, this may be a dumb question but I was curious if they go off the gpa from the pre-req's or your overall cumulative gpa??

Hey girl sorry I was at work when you responded. I am going to list both locations on my application just in case. That's not a dumb question, really the only thing they look at gpa wise for the ADN program is that you have at least a 2.5 what they're more concerned or should I say score by is the letter grade for each of the pre and post reqs, I am also taking micro over spring and she did tell me that they will apply one point toward the micro since I will be currently taking it not sure if you knew that but I was definitely excited about that

Ok. I've got A's and B's for my pre- and co-reqs. My gpa for pre-reqs is 3.46. That really IS exciting about micro! Every little point helps!!! I'm not sure if I'll apply at the Weatherford campus. It's about an hour or so drive for me :-/

Yea I've been trying to finish for so long now that I'm pretty much willing to make the drive lol weatherford campus is already 30 mins for me what's a little more for the career of a lifetime lol

Haha right!! Good point! I'll think about applying to Weatherford main campus! I have 2 small kids tho and a husband who travels a lot for work so if I did get accepted to the main campus it would be rough with the little ones getting them to school/day care and getting myself to Weatherford by 8 am!

When do you plan on taking the TEAS? I think I'm taking it at the end of this month í ½í¸

Yea I hear ya I'm in the same boat minus husband traveling but this semester my classes happened to work perfect from when I drop the kids off. I'm not sure yet I'm going to go to the workshop they're having for it the 13th and I want to have some time to practice so I may not take my first one until after we come back from winter break but I'll see how I feel about it after this workshop

I'm signed up to go to the workshop on the 13th! But then I found out there is a workshop at WCWC on the 20th which is way closer to me. I might just go to both lol so maybe I'll see us there!!
